Coach Meyer Pre Game Notes

I went through a notebook today looking for some of our motion teaching points. I came across a notes page from my Franklin DayPlanner from December 6, 1991.

The notes were from the Lipscomb vs. IUSE pre-game:

Here's what Coach Meyer said:

1. Can't be careless in what you do.
2. Poise with purpose.
3. It's not what you do, it's how you do it.
4. We will not tolerate things not getting done by the way we want it done.
5. It's not how many games you won and lost, it's how you won and lost them.
6. Terry Anderson (on his 6 years in captivity)--the years weren't wasted, he learned a lot. His attitude kept him alive. He wants peace of mind.
7. Get back to ATTITUDE being important.
8. You can't get into winning and losing. Commit to excellence.
9. Just play hard.
10. We stand for the best the game can be played.
11. We play against the game.
12. You must give all.
13. Be the best at what you're doing.
14. Strive to be the best you can be.
15. You can't always control winning and losing, just play hard.
